Carlisle (Carlstar) Snow Hog 49A3 2 Ply AS A/S All Season Tire

Carlisle Snow Hog. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: All weather traction; Enhanced durability; Better controllability; . OVERVIEW: The Carlisle Snow Hog is an all season tire manufactured for lawn mowers and other garden equipment.The tire promotes exceptional all weather traction. The tread compound and the X-shaped elements of the tread design increase the model's grip in dry, wet and winter weather. The tread's optimal compound keeps the tire's durability, while the tread design upgrades the grip the tire has on the terrain surface. The X-shaped tread elements boost the tire's snow traction and enhance the winter weather performance.The model offers great weather and terrain surface durability. The durable tire compound resists weather and terrain damage from harming the tire's tread elements and casing. The self-cleaning capability keeps the footprint clean of mud, snow and rocks, actively resisting stone retention and maintaining a clean footprint. The tire's reinforced internal structure prevents the tire shape's deformation under the driving pressure. This combination guarantees a secure driving experience.The Snow Hog improves its controllability with the non-directional tread design. The tread pattern boosts the steering responsiveness and driving stability by maintaining the tire's constant road contact. This secures the structure during the drive and increases the steering response time and accuracy to the driver's commands. This results in a safer drive and better control over the garden equipment vehicle.This is a bias ply tire. Due to the tire's internal construction and size, it is possible that the tire will look deformed. Smaller bias ply tires do not have reinforced constructions that can keep the tire from deforming. The bias construction and the small tire's non-reinforced internal structure allow the tire to fold in when it is deflated or not properly inflated. This is not constructional damage or an issue; it is a normal occurrence with such tires. In such cases, the tire needs to be mounted and inflated to the proper PSI or, in some instances, an inner tube needs to be added. The proper PSI and the inner tube are able to maintain the tire's ideal shape, preventing the bias plies from looking deformed. This ensures their performing safety and durability. The photo is a representation of the tire's possible deformation, it does not represent the specific tire model, size, tread pattern and application. This specific tire model features a BIASED ply construction. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
